Within ten seconds do the next thing youâ€™re reasonably sure Jesus wants you to do, and you could change a life forever.You pass a car with its hood up or gas cap open, and by the time you decide to stop and help, youâ€™re a mile awayâ€¦so you donâ€™t. You see a woman crying in the grocery store aisle and you are prompted to stop and ask if you can helpâ€¦but you keep walking. And you hope that youâ€™ll do better next timeâ€¦but will you?Clare DeGraaf offers an uncomplicated, straightforward antidote for breaking these habits of inaction and re-energizing your faith. He calls it the 10-second rule: Just do the next thing youâ€™re reasonably certain Jesus wants you to do. (And do it quickly before you change your mind.)The 10-Second Rule will empower you to take simple steps of obedience, as God directs you. This is not only a â€œruleâ€ you can doâ€”itâ€™s one youâ€™ll want to do!The 10-Second Rule relates stories of ordinary men and women who are living by The Rule and how it shaped and transformed their lives and the lives of those they reached out to. It shares practical ideas for discerning Godâ€™s will and recognizing his voice so you can gain greater confidence in knowing what Jesus would do if he encountered the challenges of living in the twenty-first century. Living by the 10-second rule is a call to rediscover the revolutionary power of simple kindnesses.Additional InformationDe Graaf Clare - Hardcover

The Church finds itself in a period of great diversification and multiple expressions. In the midst of great change, we have become confused about what really makes for healthy and authentic pastoral leadership. What are the basic and common characteristics necessary for pastors to be effective? How can lay people understand the pastoral call more fully and partner better with pastors for the health of their church? Here Mannoia and Walkemeyer examine the foundations of pastoral effectiveness and bring together nine experienced pastoral leaders to discuss the basic characteristics that exist in effective pastors. Regardless of context or personality, ineffectiveness in pastors and subsequent ill health in churches is often not the result of a lack of calling, but instead is the result of misappropriated efforts to find success. Let's help those who are called to be good stewards of their call. And let's help churches have a chance to be healthy under the leadership of effective pastors!Additional InformationMannoia/Walkemeyer - Paperback
